[Gen-art] Gen-ART review of draft-ietf-mpls-tp-requirements
I have been selected as the General Area Review Team (Gen-ART) reviewer for this draft (for background on Gen-ART, please see http://www.alvestrand.no/ietf/gen/art/gen-art-FAQ.html). Please resolve these comments along with any other Last Call comments you may receive. Document..: draft-ietf-mpls-tp-requirements Reviewer..: Christian Vogt Review date...: July 15, 2009 Summary: This draft is basically ready for publication, but has nits that should be fixed before publication. This document specifies protocol requirements for MPLS in packet transport networks. The document is of very good quality, with an elaborate introduction explaining the background for this document. Two editorial nits that the authors should consider addressing prior to publication of this document are the following: - The fourth paragraph on page 6, which is part of the introduction, already specifies a requirement. I suggest moving this to section 2, since this is the section that is dedicated to requirements. - The first paragraph of section 2 is a duplicate; it already appears in the introduction. I suggest removing it from section 2. The paragraph is important for the reader to understand the scope of the document, and hence should retain its prominent position in the introduction rather than the position in section 2.

Re: [Gen-art] Gen-ART review of draft-ietf-mpls-tp-requirements
All, I propose the following RFC Editor note... Section 1 OLD Although both static and dynamic configuration of MPLS-TP transport paths (including Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) and protection capabilities) is required by this document, it MUST be possible for operators to be able to completely operate (including OAM and protection capabilities) an MPLS-TP network in the absence of any control plane. NEW MPLS-TP transport paths may be established using static or dynamic configuration. It should be noted that the MPLS-TP network and its transport paths can always be operated fully (including OAM and protection capabilities) in the absence of any control plane. - - - - Section 2 OLD This document specifies the requirements of an MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP). The requirements are for the behavior of the protocol mechanisms and procedures that constitute building blocks out of which the MPLS transport profile is constructed. That is, the requirements indicate what features are to be available in the MPLS toolkit for use by MPLS-TP. The requirements in this document do not describe what functions an MPLS-TP implementation supports. The purpose of this document is to identify the toolkit and any new protocol work that is required. NEW The MPLS-TP requirements set out in this section are for the behavior of the protocol mechanisms and procedures that constitute building blocks out of which the MPLS transport profile is constructed. That is, the requirements indicate what features are to be available in the MPLS toolkit for use by MPLS-TP. - - - - Please let me know if this is acceptable.
